Chapter 45: The Fragrance Girl's Thoughts (1)
Chen Laixiang is a person who studies very hard, but no matter how hard she works to improve, she is completely disappointed in the face of the first college entrance examination, and it is impossible to change her life to pass the college entrance examination.
Chen Laixiang's parents had the idea of preferring sons over daughters in their early years, but it didn't matter when they gave birth to their eldest daughter, they gave birth to a daughter after two years, and they began to be anxious, and then in order to want a son, they gave birth to two more in a row, but they were still daughters, and the family burden was getting heavier and heavier, but in order to have a son, they gave birth to another one after three years, but God is not the beauty of adults, and she is still a daughter, and in the end they can't figure it out, because they really can't support it anymore.
Chen Laixiang is the third in the family, two sisters and two younger sisters, after the two sisters graduated from primary school, their parents did not let them study anymore, and asked them to take their younger sisters at home and help do something to reduce the burden on the family.
People are also strange to say, the same is born by their own parents, but the appearance is very different, the two sisters all chose the shortcomings of their parents, and they are not good-looking, but Chen Laixiang and the two sisters chose the advantages of their parents, they are very beautiful, and they have become the three flowers of their team, especially Chen Laixiang, not only is she beautiful, but she has a faint fragrance from birth, and her father named her. There are so many', which means that she has given birth to too many daughters, and later the two sisters accidentally found that the more she sweated, the more fragrant her body became, and her father was happy to change her name to 'Laixiang'.
As Chen Laixiang grows up, her parents' mood is getting better and better, thinking that Chen Laixiang doesn't talk much but is very smart, and can give this family a book, and it just so happens that the two sisters are getting bigger and bigger, and they don't expect Chen Laixiang to help the family do things, so they intend to let her study more, but unfortunately all the advantages can't be integrated into her, she and the fourth child are not the material for studying, which makes them a little disappointed, but fortunately, the fifth child studies very well, and finally they pinned their hopes on the youngest daughter.
In the second year of Chen Laixiang's graduation, the fields of the production team have been assigned to the households, Chen Laixiang stayed at home for more than half a year, and found that in addition to the busy farming season, there is not a lot of work in the fields at ordinary times.
Although Chen Laixiang is not very good at learning, but the craft is very fast, the master especially likes her apprentice who has a very bright brain, people want to learn things for two or three years, she learned them all in one year, when she was apprenticed, she said that she was good at learning for three years, but the master is not a person who takes advantage of a small advantage, and let her be independent two years in advance.
Chen Laixiang opened a tailor shop at home, because of her good craftsmanship, reasonable prices, fast clothes, and beautiful people with sweet mouths, business soon boomed. The eldest sister didn't want to go to school anymore after graduating from junior high school, so she simply followed her sister to learn tailoring, she also has a talent in this area, and she will soon be able to work independently.
After learning the craft, Chen Laixiang felt very fulfilled, and the living conditions of the family have improved significantly after the tailor shop opened, and the family lived happily and happily, and she also had a sense of achievement.
People come and go every day in the family, the women in the village get together at her house to talk about their hearts, and the young man who has reached the age of talking about marriage is also a frequent visitor here.
But since her sister was able to work independently, she wanted to be alone as soon as she was free, and locked herself in the room and took out the high school graduation to take a look, looking at it There is always a sour feeling in her heart, because many people in the photo have been admitted to college or high school in recent years, especially when she saw Yang Qianfeng, she was in a daze, she slightly turned her face sideways in the photo, glanced at Yang Qianfeng on the left side of the back row, the moment the photo was frozen, the secret in her heart was only known to herself, she always regretted what she said in front of Hong Xiaoshui that night, obviously she likes people, took the initiative to give him a hug, and said that he was a hooligan, because he was jealous of Ouyang Lamei, and improvised a set of lies to Huang Xiaofang......
In fact, the night after the incident, she really wished there was regret medicine in the world, but it was too late, and she couldn't beat her mouth again to restore the facts, so she made mistakes again and again.
Although she and Yang Qianfeng have never spoken since the last incident, and they have not been in touch after graduation, she specially went to Zhu Maorong's house under the pretext of playing with classmates to inquire about Yang Qianfeng's situation, Zhu Maorong and Xu Erfu, who was an apprentice at her house at the time, felt very strange, because they had heard Huang Xiaofang say something brainlessly: Yang Qianfeng is really not a thing. For this reason, Zhu Maorong asked Huang Xiaofang what happened, and Huang Xiaofang only said: He did something to Chen Laixiang. Zhu Maorong told Xu Erfu about it at the time, and the two of them didn't believe that Yang Qianfeng would do such a thing, but they thought that something must have happened. Curiosity drove them to ask Yang Qianfeng for clarification, and after seeing Yang Qianfeng, they felt that they couldn't ask, thinking that if Yang Qianfeng didn't say anything, it would be as if nothing happened!
Chen Laixiang came to inquire about Yang Qianfeng's situation, and Zhu Maorong thought vigilantly: Did you want to come to Yang Qianfeng for trouble, could it be that Yang Qianfeng really did something to Chen Laixiang at the beginning? So carefully ask her what is the matter with Yang Qianfeng.
Chen Laixiang said calmly: I came to explain some things to Yang Qianfeng and apologize to him. What did she explain and why she apologized? Chen Laixiang just smiled and didn't answer.
Zhu Maorong tried repeatedly, and found that Chen Laixiang was very sincere in terms of attitude and expression, and had no intention of looking for trouble at all, and she was still very concerned about Yang Qianfeng after listening to her tone, so she gave up the scruples in her heart, told her that Yang Qianfeng had joined the army, and gave her the mailing address, telling her that if she really needed to explain anything, she could write to him.
Chen Laixiang specially greeted Zhu Maorong when he went back, and if Yang Qianfeng came back from visiting relatives or being discharged from the army, he must notify her as soon as possible.
Yang Qianfeng is her wishful first love, but unforgettable, it should be a beautiful first love, but at the beginning it was inexplicably strangled by herself, she always thought about Yang Qianfeng's nervous expression at that time, thinking that he didn't say anything to reject her, if he said the words of rejection of her and was not found by the teacher, maybe she would have died at that time, but it backfired, it was she who unceremoniously wronged her beloved at that time, if this happened now, she would rather be wronged than let her beloved suffer a trace of grievances, Chen Laixiang didn't know how many times she scolded herself for this.
It is said that time can make people forget everything in the past, and Chen Laixiang's thoughts about Yang Qianfeng are not only not weakened but getting stronger and stronger, she hopes that time can wash away Yang Qianfeng's resentment towards herself, she doesn't want Yang Qianfeng to be admitted to the military academy in the army, and she doesn't want him to be promoted, she just hopes that he can come back from the army safely at that time, so that he, a farmer, and Ouyang Lamei can't be together, and she has hope.
She often makes her own calculations alone: do business well, make a little more money, and when Yang Qianfeng comes back, she will explain and apologize to him, she is very confident, with her appearance and ability to support herself, she will definitely be able to get Yang Qianfeng's heart.
After rural girls reach the age of eighteen, matchmakers begin to step on the threshold of their homes, especially beautiful girls, and matchmakers rush to the door. Chen Laixiang graduated from high school and her eldest sister got married, and her second sister also got married a year later. In the year before the second sister got married, the matchmakers and matchmakers paid attention to her, especially after learning tailors and becoming teachers, the matchmakers came more diligently, Chen Laixiang began to accept them in her heart, but the more she hated them, because the people they introduced were obviously not very good, and they said that they were unworthy of the name, so they rejected their kindness.
The parents didn't understand their daughter's mind at all, and they could understand her attitude at first, but then they felt that their daughter was too picky, and two of them were still relatively good, and she rejected them very much.
The son of the secretary of the brigade has reached the age of talking about marriage, and the secretary is very anxious, and his son rarely speaks, and he doesn't say anything when he has something on his mind, which is always weird. The secretary once asked him if he could take a fancy to the girl in the village, I don't know what kind of psychology he just didn't speak, the secretary looked at the son who couldn't beat a fart with three sticks and got angry, he just said: Don't be too familiar at the door.
The secretary asked the matchmaker to introduce him to four in the outer village, but he couldn't look down on any of them, in fact, the matchmaker knew that there were three girls who didn't look down on him at all. Once the matchmaker asked him what kind of person he was looking for, he suddenly said: If you want to marry, marry Chen Laixiang. Knowing his son's thoughts, the secretary was very happy, and immediately asked the matchmaker to come to the door to propose.
Chen Laixiang's parents think that this young man is what they saw grow up, four years older than Chen Laixiang, he has no bad habits, he has been working as a substitute teacher in primary school after graduating from junior high school, and he looks good, but he is introverted, he is very angry, except for giving classes to his classmates, he can't say a few words all day long, which is just the opposite of his father. But in general, the conditions are not bad from that aspect, so Chen Laixiang must agree to this marriage.
Chen Laixiang knows the secretary's son too well, she doesn't know anything except teaching, and in her opinion, it's strange not to suffocate to live with people with this kind of character, so she resolutely disagrees. Besides, there is only one Yang Qianfeng in her heart, whether Yang Qianfeng wants her or not, she is determined to wait for him, anyway, she is only in her early twenties, and she is not very old.
But the matter was not settled if he refused, and then the secretary went out in person, running to her house two times in three days, and seeing the secretary's appearance, he already had the determination to not stop. Chen Laixiang and his family are not good at getting angry and scolding, and they dare not offend the secretary, and Chen Laixiang's life is completely disrupted.
On this day, she suddenly remembered Zhu Maorong, thinking that two or three years have passed, Yang Qianfeng should also be discharged from the army or have news of being discharged from the army, but Zhu Maorong did not send news, wondering if Zhu Maorong had forgotten, or go to her to inquire about the situation, if Yang Qianfeng came back, she would go directly to him to apologize, ask him for forgiveness, and clearly tell him that he has been waiting for him for so many years, if Yang Qianfeng agrees to be good with himself, the reason for refusing the secretary will be sufficient.
There is an idea and action has always been Chen Laixiang's style, the next morning came to Zhu Maorong's house, Xu Erfu has been in Zhu Maorong's house to recruit his own son, everyone is very happy to meet, Chen Laixiang sent a red envelope of 20 yuan to the child, Xu Erfu didn't expect Chen Laixiang to be so generous, the relatives at home to give confinement gifts are generally to send a family raised old hen plus some eggs, such as to give a red envelope to the child is only two yuan, the most is only five yuan.
When Chen Laixiang stepped into the door, Zhu Maorong suddenly remembered her explanation when she left last time, and felt deeply sorry in his heart, because he had been busy with his small family's affairs in recent years, and forgot about her, so he told her everything about Yang Qianfeng in recent years.
Chen Laixiang stayed up all night after returning home, because Yang Qianfeng's today was completely opposite to her imagination, and she really shed sad tears for the first time for love, but she was not dead to Yang Qianfeng.
How can we not offend the secretary and get rid of his entanglement? For this reason, she didn't close her eyes all night thinking about how to solve this matter, and when the day was about to dawn, a plan finally formed in her heart, because her master said when talking to people that it was better to make clothes now than to sell clothes to make money. So she decided to let her sister run the tailor shop and went to the city to open a shop for business.
The next morning, she briefly told her parents about her thoughts, of course her parents didn't know Chen Laixiang's true thoughts, and only thought that her daughter didn't agree to this marriage, so it was better than facing the secretary every day and agreed.
